Funny sentences, Part I

Teaching a second language can produce some funny results. Last week was exam week (my favorite week of the month, since there is no lesson planning required) and I got some pretty funny answers back. Those prepositions are awfully tricky. Here are a few of my favorites:

  • Does she say please?
  • I'm know a smoking
  • What are you doing last summer?
  • Are you kiss me
  • Don't we like ron and soda? (Who or what is ron?)
  • I don't forget your advise and I had your portrait in my bed. (That's just creepy.)
  • Take it easy and get some (my personal favorite)
